2025 Draft Class: IDL

This might be the biggest priority we focus on and wouldn't be surprised to see DT as our top pick this year.

If we go DL in the 1st I'm all in on Walter Nolen

I don't personally want to go IDL. I'm in the Banks, Campbell or Conerly or bust group.

Though recently I've been searching for what I'd do if all 3 are gone. In this scenario I'd lean Walter Nolen or Tyler Warren at this point in time.

got it..Keep seeing Conerly pop up in mocks for us

i kinda want to go DL or another stud.. would hate to go OL and have to let him go after 4/5 years because he's not worth it.. These other skill guys, i feel like we can draft better at..idk

If they don't get Mason Graham or pass on Kenneth Grant, I want Derrek Harmon DT Oregon.

I say we grab 2 of these IDL with 2 of our first 3 picks...order depends on who is available

We can completely rebuild a team weakness into a strength with 2 of the following

Graham
Harmon
Williams
Nolan
Grant
Walker

This is a bad OL crop. Don't reach on a need

I like Evan Anderson but he absolutely should not be the reason we pass on a top IDL early in the draft.

Gonna be interesting to see who slides to the second. But if all go in the 1st round, a lot of good prospect will be there when the 9ers pick. If anything the 9ers need to trade back up into the 2nd.

I agree. Our Dline is Bosa and a bunch of backups. It's by far our biggest weakness on the team.

11 will be a DT IMO.

Mason Graham, Walter Nolan or Derrick Harmon

43 should have some good DT's available. I love TJ Sanders there and wouldn't be upset with Alfred Collins

Id even go as far as grabbing one in the 3rd. Maybe an end who can play base D and help set the edge.

Jordan Burch, Jared Ivey or Riley Mills would be nice fits.

4th round should have some rice run stuffer 1T's too

Nazir Stackouse, Demonte Capehart

My ideal 4 round draft. Fix the trenches and all the rest will fall into place.

Sign:
C- Drew Dalman
NT- DJ Jones

1.11- Mason Graham, DT- Michigan 6'3, 320
2.43- TJ Sanders, DT- South Carolina 6'4, 295
3.75- Jordan Burch, DE- Oregon 6'6, 295
3.99- Lathan Ransom, S- OSU 6'1, 210
4.111- Joshua Gray, LG- Oregon St 6'4, 310
4.137- Chase Lundt, OT- UConn 6'8, 305

LT- Trent Williams
LG- Joshua Gray / Ben Bartch
C- Drew Dalman / Matt Hennessy
RG- Dominick Puni
RT- Colton McKivitz / Chase Lundt

5T- Jordan Burch / Leonard Floyd
3T- TJ Sanders / Maliek Collins
1T- Mason Graham / DJ Jones
9T- Nick Bosa / Yetur Gross-Matos
Bench: Evan Anderson, Sam Okuayinonu

I like this kid from Notre Dame if he's there in the 4th round and we decide to double dip on DL.

Rylie Mills- 6'5" 300 lbs.- Former Edge that played inside the last 2 years so he's versatile and can play multiple positions along the line. A nice blend of size, weight and athletic profile and made Bruce Feldman's freak athlete. A team Captain, he was productive but he sustained a knee injury in December to miss the rest of the playoffs.He would be a nice rotational piece.

I like Evan Anderson but he absolutely should not be the reason we pass on a top IDL early in the draft.

You pass because outside of Graham, the talent isn't there at 11. Take BPA if we stay at 11 or trade back. Plus there are so many quality IDL in this draft. We can address it twice on day 2, still turn a weakness into a strength, while also adding top talent at other positions.
